About this Blog

Can information follow in the wake of global capital flows to create truly transnational communities of contestation and accord?

Malaysian oil and gas giant, the PETRONAS Group of Companies is a dominant investor in the British Columbian LNG sector. While Malaysia is undergoing a social and financial crisis, this Malaysian crown corporation’s investments have given rise to tribal, territorial, economic and environmental contestations across the Pacific Ocean.

Do Canadians have a perspective on Malaysia? Are Malaysians aware of economic, environmental or territorial perspectives in Canada? Can information follow in the wake of global capital to create truly transnational communities of contestation and accord? This is the persistent theme of this otherwise meandering Koboi Kembara LagiBlog (The Koboi Rides Again Blog).
